Article Synopsis
- The objective of the review is to update guidelines for managing testicular germ cell tumors (TGT) based on recent literature from 2022.
- Initial diagnosis involves clinical exam, serum marker levels (AFP, hCG, LDH), and imaging techniques like ultrasound and CT scans; treatment starts with inguinal orchiectomy which helps in defining the tumor stage and treatment approach.
- For specific stages of the tumors, treatment strategies vary, including surveillance for stage I seminomas, risk-adapted options for stage I non-seminomatous tumors, and chemotherapy for metastatic cases, with additional measures like radiotherapy for certain seminoma stages.
